Global warming appears to have shifted into a faster gear. After removing the effects of El Niño, volcanic eruptions, and solar cycles, researchers found that the planet has warmed at roughly 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years, compared with just under 0.2°C per decade from 1970 to 2015. The acceleration, which becomes visible around 2013 to 2015, appeared across five major global temperature datasets with more than 98% statistical certainty.
But AI will fix it though!!! /s
Honestly, AI is a very cool technology. I work it in and I love it, but it’s amazingly disappointing that instead of building models up fold proteins and advance humanity, we built propaganda bots, surveillance and people outsource their intelligence.
And we could have invested heavily into more efficient competing, but instead we just burn the world.
